Govt is torqued at NetSOL too...
In regard to the recent postings about internic, it seems the U.S. govt was also taken by surprise. See:

Hm. InterNIC is a trademark owned by the *government* - according to this story. But going to internic.net lands you at NetSol's website. IANAL, of course, but that seems to me like a possible case of trademark infringement. I do know that US intellectual property laws require a trademark owner to defend their trademark in court or they will lose it. What a shame it would be if the government hauled NetSol into court. -- Steve Sobol sjsobol@nacs.net (AKA support@nacs.net and abuse@nacs.net) "The world is headed for mutiny/When all we want is unity" --Creed, "One"
